Consistent error on Threadripper build

So, several weeks ago a friend and me started a threadripper build, that from the beginning started giving us trouble. First time trying to put everything together outside of the box, like everyone always recommends, didn't work, and we kept on getting post error code 00. We thought it was the RAM or the processor, but it ended-up being a faulty motherboard. Got a replacement and everything, and we were able to get a post, install operating system and drivers. But now OS keeps on crashing.

These are the errors that keep on popping-up:

  • Windows failed to start. A recent hardware of software change... (Black screen)
  • Recovery: Your PC/Device needs to be repaired (file: \Windows\system32\drivers\Wdf010000.sys) (Error code: 0xc0000221)
  • Stop code: DPC WATCHDOG VIOLATION

This is getting frustrating and we have tried everything that we can, also given that the Ryzen platform is fairly new there is not a lot of information out there of what could be happening.

Any help will be appreciated, thank you all on advance.

my guts tell me this sounds like bad ram and/or motherboard...

 

MSI by any chance?

It's all Asus, but i think we just figured it out. Redid all partitions on the SSD, it's now running, hopefully it stays like that. I'll keep updating if anything goes wrong.

MSI makes some of the best MOBOs around so dont blame the MOBO ( as i was writing this he said it was ausus anyway but my point still stands) try a different RAM config, boot without a graphics card, try a linux installation a usb.

 

messege me when your done

I think it's done, we redid the partitions on the SSD and apparently it's working for now, hopefully it stays like that.

well you thought I did. Actually MSI makes great stuff including boards. i just asked because I got a similar problem just four week ago when building a ryzen system with an MSI board for my neighbor. Turned out the board was faulty, twice. so...

but yeha, no bad feelings :-)
